Bye Bye [English translation]

I write your name into the sand

Tomorrow, the sea will have drunk everything

I don't give a damn about the discrepancy

Between unchangeable and unexpected

I open my eyes and I get older

Tomorrow is far away, and it's killing me

At the risk of looking sure of myself

I'm gonna take you where no one goes

Up and down, you're what I like the most

When everything, all of a sudden, goes wrong

A tear-gas bomb

But how could we get used to it, we prefer one other

When we say 'bye bye' to each other

I don't give a damn about rumours

The wind, the sea as far as the eye can see

Half-naked, she's old enough1

She dares, stretches her desires

Miraculously rescued from the shipwreck

Hello, hello, I am alive

At the risk of looking sure of myself

I'm gonna take you where no one goes

Up and down, you're what I like the most

When everything, all of a sudden, goes wrong

A tear-gas bomb

But how could we get used to it, we prefer one other

When we say 'bye bye' to each other

Let me be where you're going

Bite the leash if you don't come back to me

More or less into your arms

I give myself up, voicelessly wailing after you

Up and down, you're what I like the most

From your knees up to your tonsils

And you know what I can do, up and down

When everything, all of a sudden, goes wrong

A bullet hole

But how could we get used to it? How could we shut up?

When you tell me 'bye bye'

Hello, hello, I lost you

1. Which is pronounced exactly the same way as 'she's bathed in sweat'.
